To avoid premature damage to the connection joints of a conventional precast concrete shear wall, a new precast concrete shear wall system (NPSW) based on a plastic damage relocation design concept was proposed. Five specimens, including one monolithic cast-in-place concrete shear wall (MSW) as a reference and four NPSWs with different connection details (TNPSW, INPSW, HNPSW, and TNPSW-N), were designed and tested by lateral low-cyclic loading. To accurately assess the damage relocation effect and quantify the damage and deformation, digital image correlation (DIC) and conventional data acquisition methods were used in the experimental program. The concrete cracking development, crack area ratio, maximum residual crack width, curvature of the wall panel, lateral displacement, and deformed shapes of the specimens were investigated. The results showed that the plastic damage relocation design concept was effective; the initial cracking occurred at the bottom of the precast shear wall panel (middle section) of the proposed NPSWs. The test results indicated that the crack area ratio and the maximum residual crack width of the NPSWs were less than those of the MSW. The NPSWs were deformed continuously; significant distortions did not occur in their connection regions, demonstrating the merits of the proposed NPSWs. The curvatures of the middle sections of the NPSWs were lower than that of the MSW after a drift ratio of 0.5%. Among the NPSWs, HNPSW demonstrated the best performance, as its crack area ratio, concrete damage, and maximum residual crack width were the lowest.

The full-width, full-depth precast panel system is very efficient for the rehabilitation of deteriorated decks as well as for new bridge construction.. The horizontal bond strength at the interface between the two interconnected elements is of primary importance in order to achieve composite action. The strength of the bond between the two precast members should be high enough to prevent any progressive slip from taking place. However, the case when both of the interconnected elements are precast members bonded by means of grout, is not currently addressed by KBDC or AASHTO. This is the main impetus for this study. A total 43 push-off tests were performed to evaluate the horizontal bond strength and to recommend the best practice for the system. Test parameters included different interface surface conditions, different amount and different types of shear connectors. The presence of the shear keys at the top surface of the beam increased the interface bond capacity tremendously compared to the bond capacity with a different surface conditions.

It has been proved that precast slab track has advantage of rapid construction speed and good quality compared to in-situ concrete slab track. A korean precast slab track, which is named as a K-PST, was developed and had been installed on the embankment and explored on the air. The developed track system consists of precast track panel and underpouring layer which is made of cement-asphalt mortar. Consequently, poor filling of underpouring layer directly could affect on the long-term performance of the track system. As a preliminary study, the effect of the poor infilling of the underpouring in precasst slab track system on structural behavior was investigated through FEM analysis.

Fast-built construction is a key feature for successful applications of precast concrete (PC) moment frame system in recent construction practices. To this end, by introducing some unique splicing details in precast connections, especially between PC columns including panel zones, use of temporary supports and bracings can be minimized based on their self-sustaining nature. In addition, precast wide beams are commonly adopted for better economic feasibility. In this study, three self-sustaining precast concrete (PC) wide beam-column connection specimens were fabricated and tested under reversed cyclic loadings, and their seismic performances were quantitatively evaluated in terms of strength, ductility, failure modes, energy dissipation and stiffness degradation. Test results were compared with ASCE 41-17 nonlinear modeling curves and its corresponding acceptance criteria. On this basis, an improved macro modeling method was explored for a more accurate simulation. It appeared that all the test specimens fully satisfy the acceptance criteria, but the implicit joint model recommended in ASCE 41-17 tends to underestimate the joint shear stiffness of PC wide beam-column connection. While, the explicit joint model along with concentrated plastic hinge modeling technique is able to present better accuracy in simulating the cyclic responses of PC wide beam-column connections.

최근, 프리캐스트를 통한 모듈화에 대한 관심으로 인해 교량 및 빌딩 뿐만 아니라, 원전구조물, LNG 가스탱크, 중소형 강합성 구조물 등 특수구조물에도 프리캐스트 모듈화에 대한 연구가 활발하게 이뤄지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 프리캐스트 제작의 시공 및 작업성, 원활한 자재의 조달할 수 있는 방법으로 페로시멘트 (ferrocement)를 바탕으로 한 스틸메쉬로 보강된 모르타르 프리캐스트 패널을 제작하였다. 모르타르는 고강도 및 고유동성을 지니도록 실리카퓸과 고로슬래그의 배합율에 대한 변수연구를 통해 최적의 배합을 선정하였으며, $1,200{\times}600{\times}150mm$의 패널을 제작하여 스틸메쉬로 보강한 모르타르 시편과 일반 철근콘크리트 시편을 보강비 2%와 4%로 각각 제작하였다. 제작된 스틸메쉬로 보강한 모르타르의 프리캐스트 모듈화의 적용 가능성을 판단하기 위하여 기본적인 재료물성실험과 자유건조수축실험을 수행하였으며, 선하중으로 하중을 재하하여 3점 휨 시험으로 스틸메쉬로 보강한 모르타르의 구조성능을 검토하였다. 실험결과를 통해, 스틸메쉬로 보강된 모르타르 프리캐스트 패널은 높은 휨성능 및 연성효과가 있으나, 4%로 보강된 스틸메쉬 모르타르 프리캐스트 패널은 전단보강에 대한 고려가 필요하다고 판단되며, 이에 대한 조치가 이루어진다면 프리캐스트 모듈화 부재로 적용이 가능하다고 판단된다.

Two approximate methods based on mechanism analysis suitable for seismic assessment/design of structural concrete are reviewed. The methods involve use of equal energy concept or equal displacement concept along with appropriate patterns of inelastic deformations to relate structure's maximum lateral displacement to member and plastic deformations. One of these methods (Clough's method), defined here as a ductility-based approach, is examined in detail and a modification for its improvement is suggested. The modification is based on estimation of maximum inelastic displacement using inelastic design response spectra (IDRS) as an alternative to using equal energy concept. The IDRS for demand displacement ductilities are developed for a single degree of freedom model subjected to several accelerograms as functions of response modification factor (R), damping ratios, and strain hardening. The suggested revised methodology involves estimation of R as the ratio of elastic strength demand to code level demand, and determination of design base shear using $R_{design}{\leq}R$ and maximum displacement, determination of plastic displacement using IDRS and subsequent local plastic deformations. The methodology is demonstrated for the case of a 10-story precast wall panel building.

This study was initiated to develop a precast polymer concrete panel production method and to describe some engineering properties of FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastics) reinforced polymer mortar. Specimens with different panel thickness and FRP reinforcement were prepared and tested and analyzed with respect to structural behaviors. Cracking moment was mostly affected by the thickness and reinforced FRP. Data of the study could be widely applied to the designing and planning of production processes of many polymer concrete products of which all or some of the components are composed with thin panels.

Though stiffnesses of joints in precast concrete (P.C) large structures are known to be generally less than those in monolithic reinforced concrete wall structures, designers have very little information on the quantitative values with regards to these stiffnesses. The aim of this paper is to provide this quantitative information, in particular, on the compressive stiffness of horizontal joints, based on the analytical results derived from several experiments. Also, it is shown that the approach from the contact problem to determine this stiffness gives a value very similar to those obtained above.

From the extensive review of literature on existing precast prestressed concrete pavement (PPCP) systems, an innovative PPCP system has been developed. After the analysis and design, the sample system has been built and experimented under service loads and the defects of the system has been noted. Further study has been done to improve the performance of the defects. The appeared cracks around post-tensioning pockets was a crucial problem which needed to be solved in order to satisfy the service life of the system without any doubt. In this paper, different shape and arrangement of the post-tensioning pockets in the joint panel has been designed and analysed in order to find best performance for the system.

The objective of this study is to provide the information on the techniques of manufacturing and experiment in small scale modeling of precast concrete(P.C.)large panel structures. The adopted scale was 1/5th 4types of experiments were performed : material tests for model concrete and model reinforcement, compressive test of horizontal joint, shear test of vertical joint and cyclic static test of 2-story subassemblage structure. Based on the experimental results, the following conclusions are drawn: (1)Model concrete may have in general larger compressive strength than expected. (2) Model reinforcement can show less ductility if the annealing processes were performed without using vaccuum tube. (3) Failure modes of horizontal and vertical joints were almost same for both prototype and model. But the strength of model appears to be higher than required by similitude law. (4)Hysteretic behavior of 1/5 scale subassemblage model can be made quite similar to prototype's if the ductility of model reinforcement and compressive strength of model concrete could be representative of those of prototype.
